6-8th Grade ELA/Reading Classroom

Meet the Teacher

It would be an understatement to say that I am excited to work at Faith Academy this year. Having lived in Iowa City for the past three years, I could not imagine working at any other school. I graduated college in 2019 with a degree in English, and in January 2024 I graduated with my Masters in Teaching. I started working at Faith Academy in December 2023, but this will be my first full year of teaching. I could not imagine working at a better school with a wonderful staff and inspiring scholars!
From research projects to personal narratives to persuasive essays, the scholars in ELA are working hard to become better writers and critical thinkers. Whether we’re brainstorming ideas, revising drafts, or engaging in discussions, every activity is designed to help the scholars grow both as writers and communicators.
